Thank you 3 PLACES OF INTEREST Please note that temporary closure or reduced hours may be in effect due to Covid-19. It is advised that you check before you visit. Pre-booking in advance may be required. BEACHES Freshwater East Beach – This is the closest beach, being just ½ mile away. This sandy beach can be reached by foot, and there are some winding paths through the burrows down onto the beach as an alternative to the main footpath on the road, although which ever route you take there is quite a steep hill to climb when returning to Portclew. An easier option is to take the car down to the car park at the bottom of the hill with a flat walk onto the beach. Swimming here is relatively safe and there are some nice rock pools to play in. There are public toilets at the beach. Barafundle Bay – This is one of the most renowned beaches in the area for its natural beauty. It can be reached by parking your car at Stackpole Quay (which is approx. 2 miles away) and walking the next ½ mile along the headland. This can also be reached by walking the coastal footpath. There are quite a number of steps to climb down and no toilet facilities near the beach. Where you park your car you will find The Boathouse Tea Rooms, which serves excellent food and also public toilets. Broadhaven South – This beach is my absolute favourite and can be found near the village of Bosherston. There is a car park in the village, which also has an excellent Tea Rooms (Ye Olde World Café) and also St. Govan’s Inn which serves good food. This car park is alongside the lily ponds which is a lovely place to visit. By walking around the lily ponds you can reach the far side of Broadhaven beach. Alternatively if you travel through the village, on another mile, there is a car park, with public toilets, and a number of steps down to the beach. The tide here has some lively breakers and great fun for playing and body boarding in. Freshwater West – This is quite a long beach with plenty of hard sand for playing ball games and soft sand dunes also. The tide here is quite strong and not altogether safe for bathing, although is very popular for surfing and there are often National competitions held here. There are public toilets and usually a beach shack (Café Mor – The Pembrokeshire Beach Food Company) serving amazing street food including burgers with a twist and local crab and lobster. West Angle Bay – This small bay is most convenient for families as the car park is right next to the beach and the access is particularly easy. The sea is relatively safe to swim in and there are plenty of rock pools to play in. There is a mixture of soft and hard sand and this beach is suitable 4 for ball games and kite flying. There is a café/shop, Wavecrest, on site and also public toilets. In the village of Angle you will find a local pub, The Hibernia serving excellent food. Manorbier – This small bay is very rugged and has plenty of rock pools to play in. The sea is popular with surfers as the waves tend to be quite big. There is a car park and toilets alongside the beach. Manorbier Castle stands up on the hill overlooking the bay and is a very pretty small Castle which is usually open from Easter to the end of September. There are several places to eat in the village. Tenby – There are three main beaches in Tenby. The South Beach, which is found along The Esplanade, is the biggest beach with plenty of space to spread out. Castle Beach is a small popular beach found near the harbour, where fishing trips are on offer. The North Beach runs along the main shopping area of Tenby and has mainly hard sand. All beaches are relatively safe for swimming. Being situate right within the town of Tenby there are plenty of places to eat with extremely good restaurants and ice-cream parlours. Saundersfoot – This village boasts a lively harbour, from where you can take fishing trips and take part in watersports. The beach is easily accessible and is surrounded by good eating places. WALKING The Pembrokeshire Coast National Parks coastal footpath stretches from Amroth to Poppit Sands, near Cardigan and covers some 186 miles. The coastal path features some of the finest cliff scenery in Europe and the wildlife is most varied. You can join the path at Freshwater East or alternatively take the Coastal Cruiser shuttle bus to the next village and walk back. Please be aware that the Coastal Cruiser shuttle bus is operating a reduced service due to Covid-19. CASTLES Pembroke Castle – The birthplace of Henry VII is to be found on the western end of Pembroke Main Street. The castle is usually open all year and you may like to take a guided tour, which operates at certain times. There are plenty of steps to be climbed and dungeons to visit, together with tranquil sitting areas. You may also like to try your hand at some brass rubbing or visit the exhibition rooms. There is a cafe housed in the walls of the castle. Manorbier Castle – As previously mentioned this small castle sits overlooking the beautiful unspoilt bay. The impressive Great Hall, Chapel and Turrets are dotted with life-size figures. The gardens are a beautiful peaceful setting and there is also a cafe on site. 5 Carew Castle – Situated on a mill pond and alongside a tidal mill, this picturesque castle and mill are usually open from Easter until the end of October. During the summer months a wide variety of events are held in the castle. There is a shop and cafe. Picton Castle & Gardens – This castle is the only local castle which is still habitable and you can take a guided tour and learn of the history of the Philipps family who have lived there since the 15th century. There are walled and woodland gardens which are full of beautiful flowers and you can visit the Secret Owl Garden. There is a restaurant, shop and deli which are open all year.

  • Dyfed Final Recommendations News Release
    NEWS RELEASE Issued by the Telephone 02920 395031 Boundary Commission for Wales Caradog House Fax 02920 395250 1-6 St Andrews Place Cardiff CF10 3BE Date 25 August 2004 FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES IN THE PRESERVED COUNTY OF DYFED The Commission propose to make no change to their provisional recommendations for five constituencies in the preserved county of Dyfed. 1. Provisional recommendations in respect of Dyfed were published on 5 January 2004. The Commission received eleven representations, five of which were in support of their provisional recommendations. Three of the representations objected to the inclusion of the whole of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division within the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency, one objected to the name of the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency and one suggested the existing arrangements for the area be retained. 2. The Commission noted that, having received no representation of the kind mentioned in section 6 (2) of the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986, there was no statutory requirement to hold a local inquiry. The Commission further decided that in all the circumstances they would not exercise their discretion under section 6 (1) to hold an inquiry. Final recommendations 3. The main objection to the provisional recommendations was in respect of the inclusion of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division in the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency. It was argued that the division should be included in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr on the grounds that the majority of the electorate in the division fell within that constituency and that inclusion in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr rather than Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire would reduce the disparity between the electorates of the two constituencies and would bring them closer to the electoral quota.

This document provides the Welsh Government’s Report to the National Assembly for Wales on the Marine Protected Areas network, in response to recommendation 10 of the Environment and Sustainability Committee’s Marine Inquiry. Recommendation 10: By the 31 December 2013, the Welsh Government should voluntarily lay before the Assembly a report that meets the requirement of section 124 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009. This report should include an appraisal of the environmental status, governance and enforcement of existing marine protected areas. 2. Section 124 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 (the Marine Act) requires the Welsh Ministers to lay a report before the National Assembly for Wales on the extent to which it has achieved the objectives in the Marine Act to use conservation sites to contribute to a UK network of marine protected areas.
